A tree-strip of finite cone type is the product of a tree of finite cone type with a finite set. We consider random Schr\"odinger operators on these tree strips, similar to the Anderson model. We prove that for small disorder the spectrum…

It is known that, for a positive Dunford-Schwartz operator in a noncommutative $L^p-$space, $1\leq p<\infty$ or, more generally, in a noncommutative Orlicz space with order continuous norm, the corresponding ergodic averages converge…
One of the main tools used to understand both qualitative and quantitative spectral behaviour of periodic and almost periodic Schr\"odinger operators is the method of gauge transform. In this paper, we extend this method to an abstract…
